How quick we are to judge. I saw a girl on the street this morning with headphones on waiting outside a Wendy’s, getting ready to go in for work. What’s interesting was that before I could even catch myself I had judged 15 different things about her. Headphones in... she’s probably disconnected from the world. Works at Wendy’s... no ambition. Slouching a little bit... lazy. The list went on. What’s absolutely crazy is that no more than an hour before I had been praying about how I can love my community today, specifically how can I love the women in my community. 😳😳😳😳 How amazingly crazy is it that we can forget our own desires and prayers so quickly?! I only realized my error, when mid-judging I heard a small whisper saying, “You want to love someone? Well, you can stop judging them first.” Amen. Obviously, this is not a call to stop ALL judgments we make. Many of them keep us and our family safe, and are there for a reason. But in this situation there was no excuse. I did not know anything of this young lady, her dreams and aspirations, her struggles. And yet, I was so quick to sum up her entire life through the window of the coffee shop I was sitting in. I hope we all can recognize today where we can love first, and judge... much later.

I swear, every day things happen that are pure awesome and pure insanity. It’s like the bigger the highs, the bigger the lows. And the first thought is to try and figure out a way to stop “the lows”, right? But you can’t. All our scheming and planning will still end up sometimes in cruddy situations. It’s the same in our families. We can try extremely hard at loving them, and ask Gods guidance in doing so, and there will be amazing moments because of it, but there will also be heart-wrenching moments too. ⬇️ ⬆️ Life means accepting both!

It is so easy to think only of what has gone wrong - how you’ve been wronged, done wrong, seen wrong in the world. And while, I think we should always seek a transformation of ourselves and also a loving justice for those oppressed, we also need a daily reminder to look up and marvel at all the glorious things God has done in our lives.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has built a $300 million Real Estate empire. Crazy right!?!😃 I didn’t know that. 💪💪💪 Long before he was the governor of California, a mega movie star, and a world champion body builder, Arnold began his empire by buying a 6-unit apartment building. 🏢 When Arnold first came to the US as an immigrant, he needed to figure out a way to pay for his competitions and auditions without having a regular #9to5 job. He saved every penny he had for enough money to buy that first apartment building in Santa Monica.🏖 He realized he should buy an income producing property before buying a home to live in. And that’s exactly what Arnold did. He lived in apartment #6 and rented out the other five. Three years later he sold the 6-plex and bought a 12-unit apartment building. Somewhere down the road Arnold sold the 12-unit and bought a 36-unit building. And thus the empire was born. 🏘 Will you take the same steps today? ❓❓❓ ... ... ... #dmbsc #bsc #buildstrongcommunities #5branches #buildingstrongcommunities #buildingstrongcommunity #strongertogether #lookup #humbleyourself #humility #philly #whyilovephilly #loveyourcommunity #motivation #thinkandgrowrich #prayer #bscrealestate #realestate #phillyrealestate #phillyrealestategroup #invest215 #reig #rei #philarealestate #smallbusiness #smallbiz #business
